Mobile telecommunications giants MTN have gone to the aid of the chiefs and people of Nsein Traditional Area by donating a cheque for GH¢10, 000 and assorted items towards the upcoming Kundum festival.

This year’s festival by the chiefs and people of Nsein will be celebrated under the theme ‘Harnessing the Talent of the Youth for Sustainable Participation in the Planting for Food and Jobs Program – The Role of the Traditional Ruler’.

Speaking on the theme, the Acting Regional Senior Manager for South-West Business District for MTN, Ann Ekua Yalley, said MTN believes the youth have to be empowered through job creation hence their support towards festivals in the country.

She further added that the donation is to create and maintain a mutual understanding while strengthening their relationship with stakeholders.

The Paramount Chief of Nsein Traditional Area, Awulae Agyefi Kwame II, praised MTN for their historic gesture which he admitted was far beyond their expectation.

This year’s event is expected to commence from Monday, September 17 with a grand durbar slated for Friday, September 21.
